In a rare moment of internet equity Wednesday, social media joined forces to not hate on something.

The something in question is not the first-ever image of a black hole, which left some irascible folks unimpressed. It is instead a photograph of the person who helped develop the black hole imaging process — researcher Katie Bouman.

Shared on Bouman's Facebook page and later tweeted by an MIT research lab, the photograph shows Bouman reacting as she watches the black hole image being processed on her MacBook. Katie side-eyes the camera, holding her entwined hands up to her face in an Gioconda-like expression of bemusement, amazement and — lest we forget — excitement.

The black hole image was widely covered by the media today, but many reports left Bouman's name out of the text. The viral Facebook photo of Bouman might correct that.

It was not an intentional omission by most accounts. More than 200 researchers from across the world unveiled the image together on Wednesday, but the fruit of their collective efforts would not have been possible if not for Bouman.

The 29-year-old researcher developed an algorithm that was essential for devising the imaging methods, CNN reports. Working on the Event Horizon Telescope Project for the past few years, Bouman directed the selection of imaging parameters and the verification of images.
